Such information will not be considered sensitive if it is freely available in the public domain or is furnished under applicable law.
Tax Plus handles certain categories of sensitive personal data as defined under the Information Technology (Reasonable Security Practices and Procedures and Sensitive Personal Data or Information) Rules, 2011. These include PAN, Aadhaar number, bank account details, and income / financial information.
Such data is collected strictly and exclusively for the purpose of Income Tax Return filing and salary/pay computations as required under the Income Tax Act, 1961, and is handled with the highest level of care and confidentiality.
By submitting such sensitive information through the App, you explicitly consent to its use for the stated purpose of ITR filing and salary management services.
The Tax + Mitra program allows registered users to refer colleagues, friends, or contacts to the Tax Plus platform and earn an incentive of ₹25 for every fee received from a referred employee.
Your referral code (generated as nnnMM — first 3 letters of your first name + last 2 digits of your registered mobile number) is shared voluntarily by you through WhatsApp, groups, or personal messages. Tax Plus does not automatically broadcast your referral code to any third party.
Referral data (who referred whom) is recorded within the platform solely to track incentive eligibility and process reward credits to your Tax Plus wallet. This referral linkage information is not shared with any external party.
Office clerks, individual tax practitioners, and tax advocates may register as Tax + Associates to avail bulk ITR-1 filing at discounted rates and independently charge their clients as per their own rates.
Associates are required to submit the following information for each employee on whose behalf they file returns:
By submitting employee data through the Tax + Associate module, the Associate confirms that they have obtained appropriate consent from the respective employees to share their information with Tax Plus for the purpose of ITR filing.
Tax Plus uses this data solely to complete the ITR filing process. Employee credentials are handled with strict confidentiality and are not retained beyond the required filing period.
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal or financial information to any third party for commercial purposes. Your information may be shared only in the following limited circumstances:
(a) Income Tax Department / Government Portals: Your ITR filing data (PAN, income, deductions, bank details) is submitted directly to the Income Tax Department's e-Filing portal (incometax.gov.in) as part of the ITR filing process. This is the primary and intended purpose of collecting your financial data.
(b) Legal Requirements: When required or requested by law, any court, or a governmental agency or authority to disclose information for the purpose of verification of identity, prevention, detection, or investigation of offences, or for prosecution and punishment of offences. Such disclosures are made in good faith and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
(c) Service Operators & Technology Partners: We may share information with affiliated operators or technology service partners involved in processing data on our behalf, strictly for operating the Tax Plus platform. All such parties are bound to process information in compliance with this Privacy Policy and applicable confidentiality measures.
We take appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your information — including sensitive financial and identity data — against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include internal reviews of our data collection, storage and processing practices, appropriate encryption, and physical security measures to guard against unauthorised access.
All information gathered on the Tax Plus App is securely stored within our controlled database, secured behind firewalls with password-protected and strictly limited access. Sensitive credentials such as e-Filing passwords are handled in a manner that minimises retention duration and access scope.
However, no security system is entirely impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of data transmitted over the Internet. Users are advised not to share their login credentials, PAN, or Aadhaar details through unverified channels.
The Tax Plus App may request certain device permissions for the purpose of App configuration and delivering relevant platform notifications to users. These may include:
We do not use device permissions to collect personal data beyond the scope described in this Policy. Permission requests are limited to what is necessary for the intended service functionality.
Tax Plus retains your personal, employment, and financial information for as long as your account is active and as required to provide the services you have availed, or as necessary to comply with legal obligations under the Income Tax Act and other applicable laws.
Income Tax e-Filing portal credentials (passwords) submitted by Tax + Associates are used solely for the relevant filing session and are not retained beyond the completion of the ITR filing for which they were submitted.
If you wish to delete your account or request removal of your data, you may contact us at the details provided below. However, certain data may be retained by us as required under applicable law or for legitimate tax-record purposes.
